Will MIN_TRACKS_LEFT always be a constant or could you imagine letting
plugins/mixes set that value (within a certain range) as you do with
number of used seed tracks and such?
I'm only asking because sometimes I skip tracks very quickly (near the
end of the current playlist) and it happens

Michael,
do you think you could add Erland's *DynamicPlaylist* plugin to the

I did as you said, and I even changed the setting to list compilations
as a group under that name. I restarted LMS inbetween to be sure.
Unfortunately, it didn't have

True. And not only when running out of disk space (which happens

The problem is: it's not a very safe place to store stuff in because

I thought about that but decided against it. Not only because you'd have

I'd prefer a cleaner (and maybe more romust) way, one that only

will you add the --nomysqueezebox switch to the settings page eventually

have to restart manually with the switch.
Thanks.
Thank you very much, bpa. Really appreciate your help however stupid my

Ok, what I meant was "has no internet connection" because it's by

use the Radio Menu, was just curious if it's possible to disable what

Yes. The web-UI and hardware players like Squeezebox Radio use the
format that I set in the LMS settings (in my case 'track artist -- track
name -- album name') - which is also what plugins like Custom Browse
use/show.

It's certainly not a -huge- issue. Just, you know, when you look at
compilation albums in iPeng and half of the tracks feature 'Various
